Man, for a guy who stayed away from drama and attention, Bill Belichick is sure getting his fill before he's even coached one game at North Carolina...
quote:

Numerous emails from University of North Carolina donors, alumni, and faculty … which were obtained through a public records request, show a stunning lack of support for the Tar Heels’ new football coach.

In one email obtained by DailyMail.com, a donor wrote, “What a total embarrassment to UNC. I am withdrawing all my donations and future donations.”

In another email from a University of North Carolina faculty member, the disgruntled employee complained about there not being “enough money to hire the numbers of professors we need, but paying a 73-year-old guy with no college football experience [sic] 10 millions is OK (and then letting him hire his son)?”
quote:

Much of the criticism from donors, alumni and faculty was levied at North Carolina’s director of athletics Bubba Cunningham. …

“When you agreed to pay a king’s ransom to hire Bill Belichick, did you also know that you [were] hiring Jordon Hudson to serve as the primary face of UNC athletics?” one faculty member wrote to Cunningham in an email. “Normally I would say the University should not concern itself with its employees’ personal lives. But when a prominent employee injects his significant other into the University’s affairs, it becomes the University’s concern. … She’s already an embarrassment and it’s only going to get worse. Please end this circus before the season begins.”

In another … someone wrote, “Jordon Hudson has no business getting involved with Belichick’s work-related business at Chapel Hill unless she’s on your payroll. It’s bad enough the nepotism you’ve allowed by also hiring Belichick’s son.”

Another UNC grad wrote to Cunningham, “Bill Belichick is a disgrace to our university. … Please do something.”

THIS from the alums of a University that literally ran a whole fraudulent course of study for 10+ years enabling countess athletes (and others) to get fraudulent credits? Please all time college scandals
1) Penn State
2) Michigan State
3) allbeit far from the first two UNC

This is a terrible point to make. How do you know any of the people now had anything to do with that? These people are likely tired of all the scandals including the ones you mentioned.

Just another example of "news" and "controversy" being created out of nothing. So the faculty is angry. Who cares? The faculty, at every university, is ALWAYS angry when coaches sign huge contracts. Then you also have a few grads who are annoyed. Who gives a damn? The ENTIRE Tiger Rant is complaining daily about one coach or another. Most just don't email the school about their gripes.

This is exactly right. If you interview any professor from any university, you will find 99% of them hating the athletic department and feeling their own department should get more money instead of a coach.

Apply this situation to LSU. We would be going bonkers. Torches and pitchforks.

As Nick Saban supposedly said, if 100,000 people showed up every Saturday to watch a history or math class, we’d pay professors $1 million a year too.

They don’t. It’s called capitalism. Deal the it. University faculty are the most spoiled and entitled people on the planet. If Bill wins 8 games they’ll all be ecstatic in Chapel Hill.

have no idea how he's going to do but these comments aren't going to age well if he turns the program around

These comments are hilarious. If this was happening at LSU, many of you would be throwing a fit. People were losing their damn minds when rumors of Mike Tomlin would be our next coach, and he's never been in controversy and has two super bowl wins.

So a bunch of old guys are mad that Bill is pulling younger poon than them is what it boils down to. I wouldn’t hitch my wagon to her craziness if I was Bill, but until she comes running out the tunnel with him and starts calling plays, there’s really nothing of substance in any of their gripes. He hasn’t coached a game yet.
